As part of efforts to maintain the city clean, the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Abuja Minister, Nyesom Wike, revealed on Monday that the government has put in place a system to reinstate monthly sanitation.
According to information obtained by Anaedoonline.ng, the former governor of Rivers State made this comment at a private meeting with contractors overseeing various projects in the FCT.
According to Wike, he has discussed the notion of designating at least two Saturdays every month for sanitation from 7 to 10 a.m. with President Bola Tinubu.

Wike pointed out that the sanitation choice will assist businesses supplying the FCT with transportation logistics and other public spaces with the removal of trash.
For Abuja to be clean, the FCT minister advised everybody has to cooperate.
Wike stated, “We must all make sacrifices. There is nothing like we are going to suffer. You also contribute to refuse.
“So, if you spare three hours on a Saturday at home, to clear the refuse and bring them out for us to evacuate and dispose of, then that is the little way you can help.
“We are appealing to you (residents) to cooperate with us so we can achieve our goals.”
